Hi; I'm trying to update the emacs-snapshot package to a more recent

I removed the emacsSnapshot package in favour of emacs24, which is set

if you know how to update 'emacsSnapshot' appropriately, then please go
right ahead. I'm in favor of having the latest Emacs in nixpkgs, too. The

Hi Ludovic,
I'm using emacs and I'd also like to see prerelease versions of 24 in Nix.
I’ve been using Emacs 24 from [Hydra]. Would it work for you?
that package is not available in Nix -- it's available from only Hydra.
Unless I am mistaken, it cannot be installed with nix-env, and it

Hi Phil,
We should remove emacs-snapshot from Nixpkgs, because we have something
*much* better:
http://hydra.nixos.org/jobset/gnu/emacs-trunk
It’s a continuously built Emacs, off bzr. You can click on ‘build’ for
your platform, download the closure, and voilà! :-)
Thanks,

Oops; I didn't notice it's one of _those_ kinds of lists. =)
Looks great! Is this kept out of the nixpkgs-unstable channel simply
because it's packaging software that hasn't seen a stable release?

Hi Phil,
may passing the --with-crt-dir flag at configure time helps? The Emacs 23
expression does this in configureFlags:
stdenv.lib.optional (stdenv ? glibc) [ --with-crt-dir=${stdenv.glibc}/lib
]
That should work even better than those substituteInPlace calls.
I hope this helps,
Peter
